209 questions to ask your boyfriend for an interesting conversation

In order for a relationship to last long-term, you need to be on the same page with your loved one. There will be no “connection” if you are not on the same wavelength. You can know how your boyfriend feels and thinks through a sensible conversation.

But, guys are known to be a little bit closed off when it comes to talking. A lot of them even use one-word answers. Sometimes, it really feels like pulling their teeth before we can get them to talk.

You need more than a small talk if you want your boyfriend to come out of his shell. You also need to ask a lot of followup questions as well.

One way to encourage your boyfriend to talk is to ask questions that are not answerable with yes or no. That way, he will have no choice but to talk more than just one word.

This is not to generalize all men since some guys are more than happy to talk about themselves. For those guys who uncontrollably chatter on and on, these questions will steer the conversation into a meaningful one.

Every guy is different so some questions may not work for your boyfriend. But it’s worth the try. After all, it’s the effort that matters.

So here are 209 great questions to ask your boyfriend:
